Killers of the Flower Moon confirms UK release date
Killers of the Flower Moon has unveiled a brand new trailer and confirmed its UK release date.
Martin Scorsese's Western epic will premiere in UK cinemas on October 20 before streaming globally on Apple TV+. Across the pond, it's scheduled to be released in select cinemas in the US from October 6 before getting a wider release on October 20.
Based on David Grann’s non-fiction novel of the same name, the film tells the story of a series of brutal murders that took place during the early 1920s in Osage County, Oklahoma.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro star in the film as Ernest Burkhart and Bill Hale, two relatives intent on getting their hands on the colossal oil fortune of the Osage Nation.
"This wealth should come to us," Bill tells Ernest in the newly-released trailer. "Their time is over."
However, it seems Ernest isn't sure where his loyalties lie, as he soon takes a shine to Osage woman Mollie (Lily Gladstone).
The trailer also introduces us to Jesse Plemmons' FBI investigator Tom White, who arrives in town to investigate the series of brutal murders.

He will also direct the first two episodes of the series, which will tell a different story to the film but focus on the same general time period.
Killers of the Flower Moon will arrive in UK cinemas on October 20.
